This was a nice, relaxing place to stay. the only small downside was a hard bed (but some people like that) and a housekeeper that maybe was just having a bad day so was a little grouchy.

Positives: Beautiful property, tastefully designed. Friendly, competent staff. Best and most diverse breakfast I came across in Namibia. Secure parking. Sizeable room. An oasis in the city. Really lovely overall. Negatives: Bathroom lacked privacy. It was completely open to room (difficult for father-daughter traveling together). The staff was constantly chatting (amongst themselves), which could be heard from the rooms. Barking dog kept us awake at night. Dinner menu was exciting, but dinner was just okay.

Wonderful boutique hotel

This was our only one night stay in Windhoek before returning to London after 5 days touring Namibia and it was such a wonderful hotel that we didn't even bother to walk into Windhoek to look around. We just chilled out by the pool and in our beautiful boutique-style room. Staff were very friendly and helpful. The dinner in the Olive restaurant at their sister hotel next door was one of the best we had in Namibia

Nice small hotel

Nice small hotel with friendly staff. Only downside was a few mosquitos and no nets provided but there was a can with spray. Tip - ask for a room away from the main area with the restaurant as it can be noisy and is less private. Overall a good place to stay with a great breakfast.
